About the trip
This two-week cruise on Ambassador Cruise Line’s Renaissance circles the southern Caribbean, starting and finishing in Bridgetown, Barbados. After setting off, the ship calls at Willemstad in Curacao before sailing to Bonaire, known for its salt flats and colourful Dutch colonial architecture.
The itinerary takes in Guadeloupe’s Pointe-à-Pitre, where French and Caribbean influences blend in the markets, and Dominica, whose volcanic landscape contrasts with the sugar plantations of Martinique’s Fort-de-France. St Vincent and the Grenadines and St Lucia follow, islands where tropical rainforests meet beaches, before a return call at Willemstad.
The days at sea between islands offer chances to spot seabirds or take the ship’s measure: Renaissance is barely large enough to turn in a fjord, a reminder that this is not a megaship but something more manageable. The cruise begins and ends in Bridgetown, giving a clear frame to a journey that moves at a steady pace rather than a rush.
